Abstract

The issue of blood availability remains a challenge in healthcare services, particularly in meeting transfusion needs in hospitals. Low participation in voluntary blood donation and limited public understanding, including among university students, regarding the importance of donation contribute to the imbalance between blood demand and supply. This community service activity aims to increase voluntary blood donation participation through the involvement of Universitas Dr. Soetomo students as agents of social awareness at RS Bhayangkara Watu Kosek. The activity was conducted offline through brief education, donor health screening, and blood donation implementation in collaboration with hospital healthcare professionals. The participants consisted of 50 Universitas Dr. Soetomo students, comprising 15 males and 35 females. Results indicated that all eligible participants successfully donated blood, and there was a marked improvement in students' understanding and positive attitudes toward blood donation as a form of social and humanitarian concern. This activity demonstrates that student-based community service is effective in supporting hospital blood availability while simultaneously building students' social character. The outcomes of this service serve as an important model for sustainable collaboration between universities and hospitals in supporting healthcare services.

Abstract

The issues of blood availability and the high prevalence of anemia among adolescents remain major public health challenges in Indonesia. Low health literacy, misconceptions about blood donation, and unbalanced dietary patterns highlight the need for systematic and sustainable educational interventions. This community service activity aimed to improve adolescents’ knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral readiness related to blood donation and anemia prevention through participatory education involving students of Universitas Dr. Soetomo as agents of change. The program was conducted offline through interactive lectures, dialogic discussions, simulations, and evaluations using pre-test and post-test methods. A total of 50 participants were involved, consisting of 15 males and 35 females. The results demonstrated an increase in the average knowledge scores from a moderate category in the pre-test to a high category in the post-test, accompanied by more positive attitudes toward blood donation and increased awareness of nutrition and iron supplementation. These findings indicate that student-based participatory health education is effective in enhancing adolescent health literacy. This community service initiative is important as a model of community empowerment oriented toward health behavior change and the strengthening of the role of higher education institutions in public health development.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the primary health issues among the productive-age group, often remaining undetected due to low public awareness regarding routine screenings. This community service project aims to conduct blood pressure screenings while simultaneously increasing awareness of hypertension risks among the productive-age population in Menur Pumpungan Village. The activity was conducted offline through blood pressure measurements using standardized digital tensimeters, accompanied by brief education on hypertension and its prevention. The participants consisted of 100 individuals from the general public, including both productive-age men and women. The results indicated that a portion of the participants fell into the prehypertension and hypertension categories, while others maintained normal blood pressure levels. These findings suggest a significant potential for hypertension issues within the productive-age population. This initiative underscores the importance of routine blood pressure checks for early detection and strengthens the role of community service in supporting promotive and preventive health efforts at the village level.

Abstract

Emergency and post-disaster conditions often disrupt essential midwifery services, directly affecting the safety of mothers and newborns. Limited access to health facilities, shortages of healthcare personnel, and weak referral systems are major barriers to maternal and neonatal care in disaster-prone areas. This Community Service Program was conducted in Nogosari Village, Pacet District, Pasuruan Regency, East Java, to strengthen the preparedness of midwifery services. The methods included cross-sector coordination, community education, capacity building for supporting personnel, mentoring of health cadres, and simulation of essential midwifery service pathways in crisis situations. The activities focused on the provision of basic midwifery services, continuity of care for pregnant women, childbirth, postpartum mothers, and newborns, as well as strengthening the referral system. The results showed increased knowledge, skills, and preparedness among community members, cadres, and volunteers in maintaining essential midwifery services during emergencies. In addition, a shared understanding was developed regarding the importance of continuity of midwifery care as a form of protection for vulnerable groups. This program strengthened the resilience of community-based midwifery service systems and supported efforts to reduce maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality risks in disaster situations. Furthermore, the activity encouraged sustainable collaboration among healthcare workers, village authorities, and the community to maintain adaptive and responsive midwifery services in the future.

Abstract

Ketersediaan stok darah merupakan komponen krusial dalam sistem pelayanan kesehatan, namun partisipasi masyarakat di wilayah urban seperti Surabaya masih di bawah target 2% populasi. Kelurahan Kebonsari memiliki potensi risiko kesehatan yang tinggi, namun peran Karang Taruna dalam donor darah masih bersifat insidental dan terhambat oleh rendahnya literasi kesehatan. Sebanyak 70% pemuda awalnya memiliki ketakutan terhadap jarum suntik dan mitos kesehatan. Tujuan pengabdian ini adalah membangun ekosistem donor darah berkelanjutan melalui pemberdayaan 20 stakeholder kunci Karang Taruna Kebonsari. Metode yang digunakan adalah Training of Trainers (ToT) dan Focus Group Discussion (FGD) yang meliputi tahap baseline survei, intervensi edukasi intensif, dan pembentukan database digital. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan literasi kesehatan peserta secara signifikan dengan rata-rata kenaikan skor sebesar 48,3%, di mana pemahaman syarat medis meningkat dari 35% menjadi 90%. Seluruh peserta (100%) menyatakan komitmen tertulis sebagai pendonor tetap dan pionir edukasi di tingkat RT/RW. Luaran program berupa Buku Pedoman Mitra dan sistem database "Kartu Donor Rutin" menjadi fondasi kemandirian stok darah di Kelurahan Kebonsari. Kesimpulannya, hambatan utama donor darah adalah masalah persepsi yang dapat dimitigasi melalui edukasi kelompok kecil yang intensif bagi kader kepemudaan.

Abstract

Maternal and neonatal morbidity remains a critical challenge in Indonesia, particularly within the Pasean Community Health Center area in Pamekasan. Key contributing factors include limited community-based education, poor knowledge of nutrition and pregnancy danger signs, and suboptimal health cadre capacity. This community service initiative aims to enhance knowledge, empower cadres through proactive education, and reduce morbidity via early detection. The intervention involves the PELEM MANIS (Proactive Learning and Management for Mom and Kids) booklet. Activities were conducted using a hybrid model (online and face-to-face) encompassing lectures, discussions, and demonstrations. Program effectiveness was evaluated through pre- and post-tests to measure knowledge, while awareness was assessed via K6 maternal coverage. Results demonstrated a significant increase in knowledge and awareness among pregnant women, parents, and health cadres regarding pregnancy, childbirth, and neonatal care. This improvement is evidenced by higher post-test scores. The innovative booklet proved effective and relevant in helping stakeholders identify and manage emergencies throughout the maternal and neonatal periods.
